TCDPAP & FIDIC/ASPAC International Conference 2009, Kathmandu, Nepal
COUNTRY PAPERS
The role of consultants in every country is very important in its activities, including in the globalization
issue. Consultants are those who assist the State and businesses to catch up with the development
situation. To realise this role, as mentioned above, their tasks become much harder. It requires great
support from the consulting enterprises, consultant associations of TCDPAP member-countries as well
as from FIDIC. In additions, the financial institutions like WB, ADB JICA and others also have great
significance in assisting consulting enterprises which have very restricted financial possibilities to strive
to develop themselves in integration process, especially in enhancing their capability, training their
staff, to well understand regulations and provisions of international financial institutions as well as in
promptly meeting their proposals related to projects.
As mentioned above, the Vietnam Engineering Consultants Association is still very young compared
with other consultant associations in the region and the Vietnam consulting industry itself is also very
young compared with that other countries. For that reason its international integration needs support
and assistance from consultant associations in the region and worldwide. The subject of Conference of
establishment the global networking is a very idea of TCDPAP and FIDIC and we do hope that this is best
solution for consultants in various countries to develop together.
We would like to express our best wishes to participants to the Conference an wish the Conference
every success
Hope to see you again at the TCDPAP & FIDIC/ASPAC Conference in Vietnam
